Antichrist trailer, you guys:

You might think that this movie is about a middle-class couple struggling through a broken marriage being confronted with the violent disregard of the natural world to their petty bourgeois problems, but it’s actually based on a typical day at the Von Trier summer house. Things start off with a breakfast of moral terror, then there’s a casual game of Describe Your Psycho-Sexual Nightmares, followed by a long lunch of gloomy despair and godless abandonment. In the afternoon, everyone is off on their own, hiking through the haunted forest, or desperately fucking in a demon tree, but then it’s back to the cabin for a raucous dinner party of deep shadows and animalistic screaming.

He just loves to entertain!

    DATE MOVIE MAXIMUM!

    Willem Dafoe is an inspired choice. Memo to Willem: people should age. And have body fat.

    I, for one, am beginning to have my suspicions.

  3. Oh my god Gabe: I think if you actually made a list of my four favorite things probably ever they would DEFINITELY BE Lars Von Trier, Willem Dafoe, Charlotte Gainsbourg, and then I don’t know, movies about the antichrist. Did you know that this is Wikipedia’s plot synopsis:

    “A couple go to a cabin in the woods to recoup from the death of their child, where they find out that the Devil actually created and runs the world.” OBVI

  4. I had a demon fuck tree in my backyard when I was little, but my momk kept pruning the hands of the hopeless souls trapped within. You know, for aesthetics. So it wasn’t as cool as the one in the trailer…

  5. SIGN ME UP

    I’ve been waiting for Von Trier to come out with something new for a while. Apparently he went through a serious bout of depression for a while…which he then apparently channeled into the demon fuck tree.

    Little Lars is branching out, there’s nothing Dogme 95 about that trailer. Still would rather die a slow and painful death than watch anything else by von Trier, ever!

    AMAZING!

  8. i was going to be all ‘oh i really like how intense and like hyperevil von trier makes his characters’ but then i saw willam defoe having sex with a woman in a demon tree and my argument went out the window.

  9. Save the environment, plant a demon sex tree.

  10. Willem Dafoe is creepy, but I’d still let him do me in a demon tree.

  11. Oh great, never will I be able to remove the demon fuck tree image from my head.

  12. Lars and the Demon Girl?

    That last shot of a pale Defoe pumping away gave me Room flashbacks.

  15. I am 97.8% positive that the intended effect of this is not to make me giggle my ass off. Lars von Trier, wrong again.

    Nature is the Devil’s Playground is the #1st thingee I’m gonna say when forced into an outdoor activity. Namely: fucking in a tree.

    if he’d have stuck to his Dogme95 guns he wouldn’t have turned out piece of crap like this… Not that Breaking the Waves was all that less fucked up. But hey, Emily Watson for 2 hours aint bad and i think i’d rather try to forget what Stellan Skarsgard’s penis looks like over trying to forget what William Defoe’s ass looks like.

  17. This is what will happen if America accepts socialism. Preach on Glen, preach on Mr. Beck.
